MOROCCAN LAMB WITH STUFFED PEACHES AND NECTARINES RECIPE

The holiday season is here, and if you’re South African, it means gathering the family together for a massive roasted meal. Instead of the traditional Thanksgiving turkey, my family enjoys roast beef with all the fixings: roasted potatoes, gravy, and a medley of seasonal veggies. Here’s an example that’s quite similar but with an international flavour. This Moroccan lamb is layered with peaches and nectarines and is ideal for a holiday meal.

MOROCCAN LAMB WITH STUFFED PEACHES RECIPE TIPS

The standard lamb rub is easy to make and adds a nice flavour to the meat without dominating it. The peaches and nectarines are what make this lamb roll so delicious. They offer a natural sweetness and a pleasant crunch. Help simplify Christmas Day preparations by having the butcher prepare the roast. The acid in the citrus will not only give the meat a tangy, sugary flavour, but it will also tenderise it greatly. Combine with your standard Sunday roast fixings and enjoy.

Get creative with your Christmas roast this year. Jenni Morris of Juicy Delicious suggests trying this Moroccan lamb filled with peaches and nectarines.
